yes, its an MOT failure IIRC, and its a fixed penalty for not keeping it clean, same rule applies for lights etc if they cannot be seen clearly through muck

You'd have to get a very picky copper to pull you for it to be honest.

mine was getting quite bad too so i used a carwash for the first time today have always done it myself, but as its cold and i dont want to catch a cold i went through a jet one, came out really nice actually, paid for the expensive one (8quid) but worth it really as it waxed the underneath etc, which should keep it in good nick! think i may do it now and then, but then go back home and give it a proper going through!!
